Just Cucumbers

The first summer we lived in Missouri, before we had a producing garden, a friend of ours brought us the incredible bounty of bags of cucumbers.  He also asked us if we knew the best way to eat them fresh.  Not knowing whether we did or not, he gave us this recipe and I've used it ever since.

Ingredients:
4 cucumbers
1/4 cup raw apple cider vinegar
1 quart of cold water
Ice cubes

Method:
Peel and slice the cukes.
Add the vinegar and the water to a bowl and dump the cukes into it.
Add some ice cubes and then put in the fridge for an hour or so.
Serve with your meal as a salad.

In recent years, I've also heard of other families adding onions and garlic to the mix.  That'd give them some zip!
